Sounds promising. Have heard good things about Saint Gregory. Interested to see the results.

New suit from my own tailoring shop, from a Moon tweed cloth:

Looks great. How heavy is the tweed?
Alex

Cheers, it’s 375g

Nice! Where is your tailoring shop, where the suit is cut and sewn?

Tailoring shop is Götrich, on Linnégatan 75 in Stockholm. We make in-house tailoring, but this one is made through my business partners in London. Same process as in-house tailoring, but with production in their, much bigger, workshop.

I understand, thanks - yes I’ve read about your association with Cad @ the Dandy but I was not aware you had in house abilities in Stockholm as well!

We do, but since I don't want to tie up our one master tailor with making a suit for myself (60 hours of work I actually prefer her to use for full paying customers), I rather use C&D, since I've really dialed in the kind of fit I like with them. We've also got Jussi, our manager, taking measurements and doing final alterations, which means the final suits are slightly different from C&D in London. Not that they're not great, it's just that Jussi has made me bespoke garments before I bought Götrich, and he knows my slightly softer preferences, construction wise.

Looking forward to see pictures of suits and jackets fatto tutto a mano a Stoccolma!
